Ah, summer in Oklahoma City – long days filled with sunshine, backyard barbecues, and that unmistakable July heat. While we love the energy of the season, it can sometimes make winding down for a good night’s sleep a bit tricky. The humidity lingers, minds race with the day’s adventures, and before you know it, you’re tossing and turning. At Tin Lizzie’s, we believe in creating simple, luxurious rituals to help you drift off peacefully. Our version of a good night’s sleep isn’t about strict science; it’s about self-care, comfort, and a touch of indulgence. Today, we’re sharing our favorite summer sleep routine, featuring some of our coziest products to help you relax and recharge.
Nothing signals “bedtime” quite like a warm (or iced, for those hot nights!) cup of herbal tea. Sipping on something soothing an hour or so before bed helps ease the transition from day to night, promoting relaxation without any caffeine jitters. Our top pick for this ritual is the Bedtime Story Herbal Tea Sachets ($13). This calming blend is designed specifically to melt away the day’s stress, with gentle notes of chamomile, mint and other herbs that create a cozy, floral aroma. It’s naturally caffeine-free, rich in antioxidants, and perfect for a mood-boosting self-care moment. Just steep one sachet in hot water for 5-7 minutes, add a drizzle of honey if you like, and let the tranquility wash over you.
For variety, try our Lavender Coconut Rooibos Herbal Tea Sachets ($13), which layers soothing lavender with creamy coconut for a dreamy tropical twist. It’s also caffeine-free and packed with antioxidants, making it an ideal wind-down companion. These teas aren’t just delicious – there a simple way to signal to your body that it’s time to slow down.
In the middle of July, a steaming hot bath might not sound appealing, but that doesn’t mean you have to skip the pampering! Opt for a refreshing cool shower instead, using invigorating products to cleanse, exfoliate, and leave your skin feeling fresh and ready for rest. This step helps wash away the day’s sweat and stress, cooling your body temperature for better sleep while evoking the crisp, energizing vibe of the ocean.
Start with our Inis Shower Gels ($7 – $18), available in 2 sized for your convenience. The Inis Revitalizing Shower Gel provides a refreshing and invigorating cleanse that transports you to the Irish coastline with every wash. Formulated with a blend of nutrient-rich seaweed extracts and natural moisturizers, it gently cleanses without stripping your skin, leaving it soft, hydrated, and lightly scented with sparkling citrus top notes of Sicilian lemon and marine notes, heart notes of geranium and lily of the valley, and base notes of sandalwood, oak moss, and light spicy notes of clove and nutmeg. Lather up under cool water for an uplifting, summer-friendly ritual that awakens your senses without overwhelming them.
Follow up with the Inis Invigorating Body Scrub ($19) for gentle exfoliation. This luxurious treat gently sloughs away dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling soft, smooth, and renewed. Despite its exfoliating power, the scrub is gentle enough for all skin types, transforming your shower routine into a revitalizing and uplifting experience. Infused with the same fresh, oceanic fragrance as the shower gel, it pairs perfectly for a cohesive, spa-like feel. Apply a small amount to damp skin, massage in circular motions, and rinse off-your body will feel polished, moisturized, and perfectly prepped for bedtime without any greasy residue.
The grand finale of your sleep routine? Sliding into something ultra-comfortable that keeps you cool all night long. Our summer pajamas are lightweight, breathable, and designed for ultimate relaxation – perfect for those warm Oklahoma weekends.
One of our favorites in the Serena Short Sleeve & Short Pajama Set in Pretty Petals ($67). Made from 100% rayon, this set is incredibly soft against the skin, with an adjustable waistband for a customizable fit and beautiful floral patterns that add a touch of whimsy. The short sleeves and shorts keep things airy, while the comfy design ensures you stay cool without sacrificing style. Available in sizes S to XL.
For a satin touch, check out the Satin Charlotte Short Sleeve and Shorts Pajama Set in Garden Grace ($65). this luxurious set features soft, silky material that’s gentle to the skins, with a relaxed fit for all-night comfort. The vibrant paradise print brings a fun, summery vibe, and it’s machine-washable for easy care.
There you have it – Tin Lizzie’s easy, indulgent plan for a good night’s sleep this summer. By incorporating a soothing tea, a refreshing shower ritual, and our soft pajamas, you’ll be setting yourself up for restorative rest that leaves you energized for the next day’s adventures. Sleep isn’t just a necessity; it’s a luxury, and we’re here to make it feel that way.
